Armenia Evangelism Special Report

In the week before our evangelism in Armenia, our advertising campaign flooded the nation. Suddenly there was a great commotion. Seeing that people would be coming from every part of the country, pressure was put upon the government itself to overturn our legal contract with the stadium! Armenia is applying the same anti-evangelical laws as Russia. The director was afraid and cancelled the agreement. In the following days the directors of the three other stadiums in Yerevan, the capital city, first agreed to host us, then intimidated by the same pressure groups, withdrew the contracts. Our main organiser was also called in for interrogation. Then the authorities mounted a great counter campaign against our ‘evil meetings', on TV and in the national newspapers, giving incredible publicity across all Armenia to the challenge of the Gospel!

The I-Heart Revolution: We're All In This Together

Film starring Hillsong United hits cinemas across the UK for one night only on June 17th

Book your tickets now for this unique, inspiring event! www.theiheartfilm.com .

Tickets are now on sale for exclusive one-night-only cinema screenings of the Hillsong United film The I-Heart Revolution: We're All In This Together , showing at cinemas all over Europe on June 17th.

Filmed over a period of 2 years, The I-Heart Revolution: We're All In This Together follows the worship band Hillsong United, as they travel across 6 continents, 42 nations and 93 cities in a cross-cultural journey of music, animation, interviews and live action documentary as they realise every story of hope, love, loss and sacrifice ultimately points to the one story.

As United crisscross the globe they are confronted and ultimately overwhelmed by the stories of remarkable individuals facing injustice and the uncomfortable paradox of being united in worship yet divided in circumstance. If their entire focus is directed only to what happens on stage, then maybe they have missed the point altogether.

The film, with stunning live footage, behind the scenes moments and intimate insights from the band, was shot in high-definition and will be released in superb digital cinema quality with 5.1 surround sound. You can see the trailer, see where it's playing and find links to book your tickets at www.theiheartfilm.com .

Q1: How old is the earth?

A: The question of the age of the earth has produced heated discussions on Internet debate boards, TV, radio, in classrooms, and in many churches, Christian colleges, and seminaries.

The primary sides are:
Young-earth proponents (biblical age of the earth and universe of about 6,000 years).

Old-earth proponents (secular age of the earth of about 4.5 billion years and a universe about 14 billion years old).

Q: Are you just a “monkey’s uncle”?

A: Perhaps the most bitter pill to swallow for any Christian who attempts to “make peace” with Darwin is the presumed ape ancestry of man. Even many Christians who uncritically accept evolution as “God’s way of creating” try to somehow elevate the origin of man, or at least his soul, above that of the beasts.

Q: What happened to America?

A: One of President Barack Obama’s mantras—one that he has stated many times publicly—is: “Whatever we once were, we are no longer just a Christian nation; we are also a Jewish nation, a Muslim nation, a Buddhist nation, a Hindu nation, and a nation of nonbelievers.”

‘Forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.'  Philippians 3:13-14

“Sixty years of ministry is not a time for looking back, but looking forward. In the last ten years I have seen more of the blessing and the power of God than in all my life before. I have not finished the job I began 60 years ago, and I cannot finish until Christ returns. In these days God is going to pour out His spirit like never before. I can never stop, I can never give up. I want to be part of what God is doing! – I believe the best is yet to come.”
